CN code 620899 is the residual subheading covering other women's or girls' garments of textile materials other than cotton and man-made fibres, made from woven fabrics. This code covers bathrobes, negligees, briefs and other women's undergarments of silk, wool, linen and blends where neither cotton nor man-made fibres constitute the predominant component by weight. Silk and linen bathrobes represent a niche segment in this category. The material must be woven - knitted products fall under Chapter 61. Classification requires determining the predominant fibre based on weight percentage composition in accordance with Note 2 to Section XI. Heading 6208 covers diverse products, making precise product descriptions in customs documentation essential.

Women's garments under CN code 620899 are subject to the Textile Regulation (EU) No 1007/2011 on fibre composition labelling. Silk, wool and linen must be designated by their correct generic names from Annex I. REACH restrictions apply to azo dyes (30 mg/kg per amine), formaldehyde (75 mg/kg for skin contact) and chromium VI in wool products (3 mg/kg). Silk bathrobes may contain residues from silk processing that should be verified for REACH compliance. The GPSR Regulation (EU) 2023/988 requires importers to conduct risk assessments and ensure product traceability. Bathrobes with belts require mechanical risk assessment.

The customs declaration for products under CN code 620899 should precisely describe the product type, dominant material, intended gender and construction method. Women's underwear of natural fibres (silk, wool, linen) represents a premium segment with higher customs value. Silk undergarments imported from China may be subject to additional trade measures - TARIC verification is recommended. Preferential duty rates may be available under FTA agreements or the GSP system. Linen women's underwear may benefit from preferences under agreements with European and Mediterranean countries. Customs documentation should include a commercial invoice with transaction value, material specification and proof of origin.

CN 6208 99 is a residual subheading covering women's underwear of textile materials other than cotton, synthetic and artificial fibres. This includes products of natural silk and linen. Silk underwear represents the luxury segment with higher customs value. The same REACH and GPSR requirements apply as for other subheadings of heading 6208. The standard duty rate is 12%.
